I got my coloriffic swap today, and look how freaking cute!
There’s a handmade wristband, which I am wearing even now, an adorable–I don’t know what he is? A fat mushroom? An egg in a beret?–jar with a gasketed lid that will be home to something delicious, three spool of printed ribbon, 2 darling little red aluminum tins, a wooden pen with an animal head, another pen with flowers all over, a little stuffed mushroom bobble that I think I’ll use as a zipper fob, hand-dyed yarn, polka-dotted fabric, printed fabric that’s begging to be embroidered, a foam N (for Nikol! Yay, me!), and yummy candy! Hooray!

I used your pattern from Shojobeat and figured you might want to see it. I really liked the pattern!

Wow, you scored! And I’ve seen that Bon Appetit fellow before, but I can’t place it…
Too…much…red…burning…into…my…retinas…must…look…away…
Seriously, you have very beautiful hand(s).
the little egg guy? i think he’s either a sugar bowl (if he’s small) or a coffee canister, going by the little scoop on the side. too cute!
